BACKGROUND:
The Solid Waste Services Assessment Ordinance (Ordinance No. 2000-28) provides for an annual assessment against single-family residences for solid waste collection and disposal services, facilities, and programs.
DISCUSSION:
This resolution sets the solid waste services assessment rate for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2023, through September 30, 2024, as $380.40; imposes the assessment against certain properties within the City of Coconut Creek; and approves the assessment roll provided by the Broward County Property Appraiser’s Office. This represents an approximate fifteen percent (15%) increase from the current annual rate of $329.70 and includes cleaning and sanitizing of the solid waste bin twice per year, the Household Hazardous Waste Program, and Recycling Drop-off Centers.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of this resolution.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The solid waste assessment will generate approximately $3,137,510 in net revenues, of which $2,592,150 is passed through to Republic Services. The City will retain approximately $377,100 in solid waste franchise fees (Account 01-V32370), $54,430 for the Household Hazardous Waste Program, and $113,830 for the Recycling Drop-off Centers and other solid waste programs (Account 01-V32520).
